https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/05/the -giuliani-corrections-glenn-greenwald-edition.php So... "Independent confirmation" now means " we liked that lie". Remember the pundit that announced he had no intentions of ever committing suicide when discussing Hilary? Smart guy. If he's found dead he wants an investigation. So in that spirit, if I seem to accept a CNN or MSNBC report uncritically, remind me to take aspirin IMMEDIATELY, & go to the hospital to have my brain scanned for a stroke. | ||

https://www.jns.org/opinion/ap-al-jazeera-and-the- mainstream-media-are-tools-in-hamass-war-against-i srael/Palestine According to the media, this war started initially because the Israel Police employed crowd-control measures near a gate outside the Old City of Jerusalem, where innocent Muslim penitents were gathering after their daily Ramadan fast. Reports to this effect made little mention, if at all, of the rioting taking place there, night in and night out. Gee, sounds a lot like the Party Agitprop Toadies that called assaults on reporters, assaults on police, arson of buildings with people inside, mass looting during multi week riots... "Mostly Peaceful Protest". The straw that clearly broke the Palestinians’ back, however—and led to all-out war—was when Israeli law enforcement ostensibly “stormed” the Al-Aqsa mosque compound. It didn’t matter that Israeli police officers entered the compound to dispel a violent Arab riot, which included the throwing of rocks and hurling of Molotov cocktails at defenseless Jewish worshipers in the Western Wall plaza some 70 feet below. Suddenly, an annual parade by Israelis on “Jerusalem Day” was portrayed as an act of aggressive nationalism. And when Arabs rioting on the Temple Mount—Judaism’s holiest site beyond any dispute, even among Muslims—set a tree ablaze with fireworks illegally lit while Jews were having a concert at the Western Wall, many media outlets spread images of Jews “celebrating the burning of Al-Aqsa.” Worse, these outlets have been attempting to disingenuously link up the Palestinian cause with the sentiments that have fueled the Black Lives Matter movement—a movement that similarly justified rioting in urban centers. This is done with careful coordination across media outlets, and employs talking points tested in focus groups, with the specific goal of eliciting emotional responses from viewers sitting in front of their televisions and phones. To see this phony media campaign in action, one can watch various Israeli spokespersons across different networks being bombarded with the exact same accusations and questions about civilian casualties in Gaza. Narrative, not reporting, is the Way. Fiction without facts. Fundamental Dishonesty to push The Party Line. “Hypocrisy” is an overly kind word. A better term would be “narrative warfare.”..... Aside from its strike on the building housing AP and Al Jazeera, the IDF actually used an unwitting mainstream media to achieve a well-designed strategic objective. A day prior to the hit, the Israeli military reportedly alerted various outlets to its supposed upcoming ground incursion into Gaza. At the time, the IDF tweeted that its “ground troops are currently attacking in the Gaza Strip,” a post that promptly went viral as evidence that the said incursion had begun. In response to the messages being broadcast by media outlets, Hamas ordered its operatives to enter the network of tunnels—built with funds and materials that could otherwise be used to better the lives of Gaza’s residents—in preparation for infiltrations into Israel. At that very moment, Israel bombed the tunnel network, killing dozens of terrorists. This isn’t the first time that Israel has “played” the mainstream media, which deserves it. Israel is a democracy, charged with protecting its citizens from attacks by well-funded terror organizations. It neither seeks conflict nor prefers fighting. Yet a “free press” is clearly working for—and even in the same building as—a terrorist organization. | ||

https://melaniephillips.substack.com/p/a-murderous -co-operation What most of the public don’t realise — because the western media never tells them — is that absolutely nothing exists in Gaza without the approval of Hamas. The only journalists allowed to be in Gaza are those who deliver the story Hamas wants to tell the world. Any journalist who tried to tell the truth about Hamas would be either thrown out of Gaza or murdered. That’s something of a disincentive to telling people what’s actually going on. Most reporting from Gaza is delivered by local Palestinian “stringers” or fixers. They may boast respectable media accreditation like AP. But they are either members of Hamas themselves or are all too aware that if they don’t deliver what Hamas wants them to deliver, they’re dead. The same goes for Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah and the Palestinian Authority. And the fact is that, for decades, the west’s major news agencies have used Palestinian stringers whose propaganda goes straight into national newspapers in Britain, America and elsewhere — sometimes even under the byline of a staff correspondent sitting in an office in a safe country — and is believed by the unsuspecting western reader who trusts the integrity of that newspaper. | ||

I think it’s beautiful that Israel used the certainty that the press would report on their every movement, in order to provide intelligence to the terrorists, against the terrorists. That’s right, everybody into the tunnels... | ||

https://www.city-journal.org/facebook-and-its-fact -checkers-spread-misinformation That Facebook is now CensorSpace is unmistakable. Maybe because the founder is a Lizard Creature less lifelike than the aliens from V? ( joke! He claims to be Human! ) Hoot, the bias and dishonesty of so called reporters and so called News Agencies make them perfect tools for Propaganda... So of course, telling the Terrorist's Agitprop Minions something is a perfect way to tell the Terrorists. Brilliant! I'm wondering how to use that, here? | ||

That's because the Chinese were pulling the Media's strings. It's OK to call it the Indian variant because India is competing with China economically and India doesn't have control over the MSM. | ||

"Why does Twitter allow the Left to encourage violence against Rand Paul?" Because Twitter and other Big Tech are run by Leftists. From the horse's mouth: “I understand where that concern is coming from because Facebook and the tech industry are located in Silicon Valley, which is an extremely left-leaning place.” - Mark Zuckerberg. https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/facebook-ceo- mark-zuckerberg-acknowledges-silicon-valley-left-w ing-bias | ||

https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/05/acl u-corruption-revealed.php I was uninterested in the Depp/Heard divorce, until now. Both decent actors and Hollywood lives are often dumpster fires. But since the ACLU long ago quit giving a darn about American's Civil Liberties, I hope Mr. Depp hammers them into oblivion. That's assuming that the ACLU with malice libeled Depp for money. That deserves criminal prosecution unlikely during the Occupation. | ||

https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/06/wil lful-blindness-about-the-americas-violent-crime-wa ve.php There are explanations for the surge in violent crimes and murders that the editorial skips over. Criminal regimes have lots of crimes. The Soviet Union had a shadow government of mobsters, with worse mobsters running the government. Contempt for authority by the authorities breeds contempt by the victims too. When the Governor decrees no one is allowed to party in a restaurant, then holds a big fundraising party in a restaurant, he gives a clear message that he doesn't care about the law. When there are rules for thee but not me, Contempt is a natural reaction to hypocrisy. And a propaganda arm of a Marxist Party lies when it breathes. | ||
